BLM Ranger Shot Near Lake Tahoe
On Saturday, Brent Douglas Cole allegedly shot a ranger from the BLM and an officer with the California Highway Patrol. The suspect posted a large number of anti-government posts on Facebook and other sites, and appears to belong to the Sovereign Citizens Movement. In addition, he also posted several articles supportive of the militia standoff at the Bundy Ranch in Bunkerville. So what is the link between Cole and anti-government groups? And is this crime another indication that politically-motivated violence against law enforcement officers is on the rise?

You won’t find a paywall here. Come as often as you like — we’re not counting. You’ve found a like-minded tribe that cherishes what a free press stands for. If you can spend another couple of minutes making a pledge of as little as $5, you’ll feel like a superhero defending democracy for less than the cost of a month of Netflix.
